What is it with their fans this year? All they do is fight. It's like a throw back to the eighties again with them.

Leighton Baines and James McCarthy will not be available for Sunday's game against West Ham United.
Ronald Koeman held his pre-match press conference on Friday afternoon and confirmed he would again be without the duo for the 1.30pm clash at Goodison Park.
Left-back Baines has missed the last five games with a hamstring problem and midfielder McCarthy has since sustained a similar injury.
"Baines is out and McCarthy is out," answered Koeman when asked about his team selection ahead of the weekend. "[James has] a slight hamstring problem that came after he played for Ireland."

Koeman Forecasts Sunnier SpellRonald Koeman insists Everton have the personalities to get their positive start to the season quickly back on track. The Blues opened with four wins and a draw from their first five games but have since gained just two points from fixtures away at Bournemouth, Manchester City and Burnley and at home against Crystal Palace. Koeman’s men remain sixth in the Premier League table going into the weekend’s round of matches, with 15th-placed West Ham United the visitors to Goodison Park on Sunday. “It’s not about our last five games, it’s not about the first six, it’s not about winning or losing, it’s an overview of what has happened and that we want to change," said the Toffees boss. “Of course, we know if you don’t win in the last four [games] in the Premier League then every time you play you come closer to a must-win game. “I think we need to turn it around but it happens in football. I’m prepared to get in tough times and also prepared for how we started the season, because that’s football. "When you have a lot of experience in this game you know that what happened last week does not count any more. It’s all about the next. I hate losing, and that mentality has to be shared by everybody, but no team will go through the season without having tasted defeat and we are no different. “My experiences, and it happened also at Southampton, is that it’s not always sunny and you don’t win always. You get in difficult times, in tough times and then really you need to support each other. “That’s important. If everything goes well it’s easy to come into the team, it’s easy to play but now really we need the personalities to turn it around and I think we have enough personalties in the team. "We have really experienced players, we have young players and, in terms of age, I think we have a good balance in the squad. “But you always try to be better and try to be stronger, and that starts this weekend.”

I'm looking forward to this game. Both teams will be going for goals, so it should be an open game, and Lukaku has a great record of scoring against them.
